Thanks for retesting the car, very useful videos!

Average speed matters most, but peak speed is important too, since you do not always want to charge to 80%. Sometimes you just need enough to get home.

Kris, du bør gjøre en ny test og sørge for at batteriet er skikkelig varmt. Har en 2023-modell og lader alltid med 110-154kw fra 0-ca 70 % selv om det er -24 grader ute. Tørst bil, men skikkelig ladekonge🙂

Thanks for your video, If you got time could you look at the average charger speed on most city ? I live in Geneva Switzerland and when looking at charger, most of them are 7.2 to 22kw so for someone like without a way to charge at home or work it just means it's very unpracticle to own an electric car. I am wondering if Geneva or Switzerland is late to the party of fast charger or if it's the case of most European city.

Superb video Kris !! Keep it up !! :=)

Have you ever counted the number of times you have said "...Stated Charge" over all of your videos? I think it is enough just to give the percentage.

[norbertmayer]

Do you think the speed increase to 170 with id4 will be through software, or on new models?

[apicharjiratanan]

If the charging times r faster than a 400 kilometer range ev is good enough

1.XC 40 R design…Test drive conclusions

I Felt that Steering wheel dia was a little smaller…
And the Vehicle Suspension felt rough
&the Back seats are not comfortable
& Arm rest and driver seat door rest has to be designed better

Very interesting, so it’s not worth going to an expensive 150W charger for a top up if you’re over 50% charge. 50kW will do fine.

[BERNIEO]

Charging speeds are only important to knuckleheads !

[sergiudan]

Not so unique, looks like the one in PSA group

[Crazyuncle]

Great. Over 40 minutes to recharge as opposed to 5 minutes to fill up at the gas pump. Can you imagine how long the lines will get at Costco?
